NHS Consultant Paediatricians reveal
exactly what to do in every situation
your baby's first three months will throw at you
The complete self-paced newborn course that gives you confidence, clarity and calm — without live sessions, without scheduling around a newborn, and without wading through unverified advice online.
Breathing. Feeding. Crying. Sleep. Skin. Fever. Jaundice. Growth. 10 modules of exact newborn care knowledge, accessible the moment you need them.
You're not underprepared.
You're just under-informed.
"That single piece of information changed everything."
Ananya K. — First-time mother, Delhi
You've done everything right. You read the books during pregnancy. You're in the WhatsApp groups. Your mother-in-law has opinions. Your paediatrician has five minutes.
And yet — when your baby cries at 2am and you genuinely don't know why, none of that helps.
You find yourself Googling "is this breathing normal" at midnight. You screenshot posts from parenting pages run by people with no medical training. You stare at a rash and wonder whether it's something or nothing.
This isn't incompetence. This is what happens when nobody gives you a complete, trustworthy picture before you need it.
By the end of this course, you won't need to Google. You'll know.
Here is what changes when you know
what you're looking at.
This isn't a course about becoming a perfect parent. It's about removing the specific fears that make the first three months harder than they need to be.
What periodic breathing is, what apnoea looks like, and the exact visual cues that mean go to the doctor now versus watch for another hour.
Why the expensive formula tin isn't clinically better than the affordable one, and how to tell normal reflux from the kind that needs attention.
Baby acne. Cradle cap. Erythema toxicum. Nappy rash. Eczema. You'll identify them on sight and know the signs that mean see a doctor today.
The crying peaks at six to eight weeks. Most parents don't know that. Knowing it changes everything.
The precise temperature thresholds for babies under three months. The numbers that mean go today, and the ones that mean watch and wait.
You'll know who you're seeing, what they're checking for, and what to ask. You'll leave with answers instead of more uncertainty.
Built by the doctors
you'd want in the room.
ParentMed was founded by three NHS Consultant Paediatricians with over 50 years of combined clinical experience. Medical education written and delivered by doctors who see these cases in hospital every week.
Three clinicians. Three perspectives. One course built on the questions parents actually ask, and the answers that actually help.
Because parents deserve more
than generic parenting content.
Every family comes loaded with inherited wisdom. Some of it is genuinely useful. Some of it needs to be questioned. All of it deserves a clear clinical answer.
The evidence behind this tradition, explained with respect and precision. You'll know what to continue, what to avoid, and why.
Jaundice can present differently in Indian skin tones. You'll understand what normal looks like and the stool colour guide that tells you when to act fast.
The clinical guidance, the real risks, and how to minimise them for families where co-sleeping is the practical and cultural norm.
Why the premium tin is not medically superior. What the labels are saying versus what they're implying.
Private clinic, government hospital, paediatrician, GP — who to see, when, and what to ask at every appointment.
Fifty common newborn beliefs answered by NHS paediatricians — with evidence, and without condescension.
10 modules. Everything that will
keep you up at night, covered.
Each module is recorded, self-paced, and designed to be watched in full or returned to when you need a specific answer.
Periodic breathing, apnoea, noisy breathing — what's normal, what's not, and the exact signs that mean get help now.
Breastfeeding, formula, tongue tie, reflux — the full picture, without the guilt or the marketing spin.
The colour guide to baby poo. The difference between reflux and GORD. Cow's milk protein allergy and when to flag it.
Baby acne, cradle cap, eczema, birthmarks, nappy rash — what each looks like, what helps, what needs a doctor.
The crying curve that will genuinely reassure you. Colic, what it actually is, and the one rule every parent must know.
Safe sleep, co-sleeping, temperature regulation — guidance for families where context matters.
Why it's common in newborns, when phototherapy is needed, and the stool colour chart that tells you when to act fast.
Growth charts, the four developmental areas in the first three months, and why your face is the best toy your baby will ever have.
The exact temperature thresholds for babies under three months and the numbers that mean go today.
Who to see, what to expect, what to ask — at every appointment, in every type of facility.
A course that works around
a newborn's schedule, not a calendar.
No scheduled sessions. No live classes to attend. No arranging childcare so you can show up at a fixed time.
Every module is pre-recorded and accessible on your phone, tablet, or laptop. Available the moment you enrol.
Return to any module whenever you need it. The fever module at week eight. The sleep module when the 4am wakeups begin. Yours for as long as you need it.
Each module comes with a one-page PDF summary. Print it. Put it on the fridge. Share it with a grandparent who needs convincing.
What parents said after
taking the course.
The crying module saved my sanity. At six weeks my daughter cried for hours every evening. I thought something was terribly wrong. Knowing the crying peaks at six to eight weeks and is completely normal — that single piece of information changed everything.
I grew up being told that oil massage is essential for every newborn. The skin module explained the actual evidence — what helps, what to avoid. My mother was sceptical until I showed her the PDF. Now she quotes it to her friends.
My baby had what looked like jaundice at day ten. Instead of panicking, I went straight to the jaundice module and understood exactly what I was looking at. I knew when to go to the doctor. That alone was worth the entire course.
The most commonly asked questions,
answered honestly.
Stop second-guessing.
Start knowing.
The fear, the confusion, the 3am Googling — none of that has to be part of the first three months.
One course. Built by doctors. Available the moment you need it.
